What is a copywriting contract?

A copywriting contract defines the content to be created, word counts, deadlines, revision policy, payment terms, and who owns the final content.

Who owns the copyright for written content?

By default, the writer owns copyright until it is transferred to the client. Your contract should specify that copyright transfers upon full payment.

How many revisions should a copywriting contract include?

Typically 1–2 rounds of revisions are standard. Define what a revision means (minor edits vs. complete rewrites) to prevent scope creep.

Should I charge a kill fee for cancelled projects?

Yes. A kill fee of 25–50% of the project value is standard if the client cancels after work has begun.

Can I use the content in my portfolio?

Yes, unless the client requests a confidentiality clause. Portfolio rights are standard in most copywriting agreements.
